This little book is 32 pages long and is available either in hardcopy or as a pdf download — the link to buy is in the title above. I think all the hats are pretty darn cute, and would make great quick gifts.

The patterns (with one exception that is knit in sport weight yarn) are for DK though aran weight, so they will kit up very quickly. The yarns used are all from well-known companies (Plymouth, Cascade, Berroco, Sirdar) and you could easily sub different yarns.

Each pattern has a difficulty rating and all patterns are clear and seem to be easy to follow. There is a nice illustrated how-to section in the back.

Now, I don’t have any babies to knit for, but maybe you do? If you would like to be entered in a drawing to receive my review (hard) copy, leave a comment on this blog post by 11:00 AM Eastern time, sunday, September 13, 2015. At that time we’ll select a winner at random.

Meanwhile . . .

I am making nice progress on the back of my sweater/jacket:

I took this photo last night so it is a bit darker than the photos from the last blog post. The true color is somewhere between the two.

And here is the Little Prince, fast asleep atop one of the dressers in my bedroom:

I have three dressers in my bedroom, and Loki has required that I clear off two of them (along with my nightstand) for his exclusive use. He is trying to gain control of the third dresser, but I am doing my best at resisting him. We refer to this as “The Battle of the Third Dresser.”

Boy, this looks like a fantastic book. I have been making that “Highway Hat” that was on Knitters Paradise and would love to have more patterns to choose from. I usually donate and/or give the hats to friends’ grandchildren. Love what you are working on now. Pattern? Just beautiful.
Thanks for the opportunity.

What a great book with such cute selections! Thank you for the opportunity to get this! Hello to pretty, “fluffy” Loki!! I love still seeing the very beautiful Lucy’s photo on your website Wendy.
Sweet, sweet kitty! Best wishes!

I would love to have this book. The hats look adorable, and I love making baby things. I make baby knits when I hear of a friend or family member having a baby or grand baby. I also make baby hats for the preemies at the PICU at the hospital near my home. Thanks Wendy!

Wendy, thanks for offering this book. I have a greatniece I like to knit for (made a gnome and a strawberry hat when she was born). Also have a friend whose daughter just had twins at 24 weeks so would really like to bring some sunshine to their hospital stay for the next several months.

Those are some darling little hats! I don’t have babies or grandbabies, but I know people who do!
And my cats clean off my dresser and night stand on a regular basis. I resist emptying them for their enjoyment because I have stuff too!!
